Re: Poor Drake....

If Drake would not have been settling for 3's within 10 seconds of the shot clock throughout the second half, they could have won in regulation by about 12-15 with the way WKU was turning the ball over, mostly unforced.

Re: Poor Drake....

I don't feel too sorry for them. They had a nice season and were the talk of their city/state for a few months. All good things come to an end eventually. That's rough to lose like they did but that's the beauty of March Madness.

Drake doesn't settle for the 3...that's their game. They simply didn't shoot them well in the first half - that and the lights-out shooting by WKU were the difference today.

Not sure why anyone would be shocked that Drake lost. That W Kentucky team matched up very well with Drake. It is amazing to me how local media influences people. Everyone seems to have thought this was going to win it all for some reason.
